Energy requalification for 4 buildings in Udine.
Greater living comfort and energy efficiencyreduction in consumption and above all an overall redevelopment of municipal housing used for welfare purposes: these are the objectives of the project redevelopment of the housing complex in via Sabbadini in Udine, located from numbers 52 to 58.
The Municipality of Udine together with HSE, Hera Servizi Energiawill intervene to modernize the four buildings, which bring together a total of 42 accommodations, have long been in need of profound intervention. In fact, during the last session of the municipal council, the councilor for the environment and energy Eleonora Meloni illustrated the project linked to the energy transition of the properties, the result of a 2014 industrial agreement between the municipal administration and the Hera Group.
This agreement is concluded today by making improvements to a project already under construction thanks to a project financing achieved between the Administration and the multi-utility.
“Another step forward in the broad program of interventions that the municipal administration has planned existing buildings intended for public and private useo and in particular for the benefit of the most vulnerable”, declares Meloni who continues: “This intervention is part of the process of regeneration of the municipality’s building heritage“.
The works.
The works, shared by the municipal technical offices and those of the HSE, will be profound, including plant and construction works, for an investment of 250,000 euros which is added to what has already been planned in project financing.
The intervention, partially already foreseen in the current concession contract, provides for the centralization of the heating system with the creation of a single prefabricated thermal power plant with a hybrid heat pump system, the creation of new lines connecting to the distributions of the individual apartments, as well as the installation of regulation systems such as thermostatic valves on radiators and the application of a consumption accounting and monitoring system.
Furthermore, further improvements have been foreseen such as: construction of the external coat with rock wool panels, the production of domestic hot water via user satellites and the preparation for the installation of a photovoltaic system.
There are many benefits that will be obtained thanks to this intervention: first and foremost the greater internal comfort And the rational use of energy thanks to remote control and thermoregulation systems. To this we will add a second related aspect to the efficiency of the systems and specifically to a improvement of the average performance of the systemresulting in reduction of energy needs and primary energy consumption. The creation of a centralized heating plant will also make it possible to facilitate plant maintenance operations with a consequent reduction in maintenance costs.
Another immediate advantage will concern the environmental sustainabilitywith particular attention to decarbonisation and pollution reduction in the air: the use of renewable energy will be promoted thanks to the creation of the hybrid system with air-water heat pump and emissions of carbon dioxide CO2 and other pollutants (NOx and SOx) will be reduced.
The statements.
“Thanks to the existing industrial agreement – continues the councilor -, and to the possibility of implementing a innovative project regarding renewable sources and energy efficiency on municipal properties, we asked Hera last February for the possibility of intervening on this complex. This change of project naturally requires the passage to the City Councilbut I am sure that all my fellow councilors will grasp the importance and relevance of tangible redevelopment interventions in favor of the neighborhood and the most vulnerable population and therefore they will vote favorably.”
“The Hera Group, with its subsidiaries AcegasApsAmga and HSE, has as its first objective: provide services and concrete responses to needs of the communities in which it operates – explains the CEO of AcegasApsAmga, Roberto Gasparetto -. For this reason we were pleased to seize the stimulus of develop an energy requalification project that brings benefits to citizens residing in the municipal buildings in via Sabbadini, reducing their primary energy consumption. A project that translates into concrete value also for the entire community in environmental terms, given that thanks to the improvements we will make, energy expenditure for heating will be reduced, and therefore CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, but also in terms of redevelopment of public real estate”.
